Highlights

An employee appealed the denial of his claim for the cost of taxi fares incurred incident to travel to and from a Korean Air Force Base. The claim was denied because Government transportation was available, and commercial travel is not authorized in such cases. The employee claimed there was no reliable bus service. Since there was a dispute of fact which could not be resolved without an adversary proceeding, GAO resolved the dispute in favor of the Government, and the denial of the claim was affirmed. (SW)
